That's just really sad, isn't it? And to me, ironic. If a RESCUE organization, of all places, doesn't have an animal's best health at the forefront, I just don't even know what to say about it.

Rescued babies are already so fragile - so their systems could be devastated by overvaccination.

Seriously, I sure would hope Rescues would follow the AAHA's 2006 Guidelines for Vaccination - I don't see how they could excuse themselves from it, since it is there to protect a dog's health. /rant
